Everything written before Wander decided to show his faith to the great Cthulhu was Welsh.

And Janne, Welsh is a poetic language with beautiful intonation (unlike the guttural stuff spoken in the Star Wars bar.

Byddwn i'n happus iawn i ysgrifennu yn y Gymraeg! Yn well na yn Frangeg, beth bynnag.
Beth am fframiau pacio? Dyn ni'n meddwl am y "Tatonka Lastenkraxe". Oes profiad hwn 'da unrhyw un 'ma?
Owh a challenge! My extremely limited Welsh had a field day and now I've got a headache! :)
How is this? (Not word for word but general gist)
You would be happier speaking Welsh than French. And something about a frame rucksack. Best I can do unless I spend hours more racking my brain cells. :)ah yes ....what about a frame rucksack ? Bits comming back slowly... very slowly!

I regret ever getting rid of my two Karrimor frames. They were comfortable, had good hip belts, and were much more versatile than rucksacks. But, back then I was backpacking with more traditional tent etc. Now, using tarps and/or bivvi bag a simple frame to just strap my gear to would be good :)

I also regret that my French is better than my Welsh having been torn from my Fatherland at a young age and taken to foreign parts :)

Da iawn! You pretty much got it. :D I'd be happy to write in Welsh and, yeah, my French isn't at all up to scratch. We're thinking of getting pack frames for this summer's fieldwork as we'll have a lot of awkward equipment to shift (luckily for me I'll spend most of my time in the lab) and they've already got a few of those ones at the field station.

Thanks. Very very very rusty nowadays. Was never great.. or even good back then . Still, can just about get the gist of things even if my tounge refuses to work in welsh properly. :)

If it doesn’t involve contact (i.e. tacking, punching, blocking, kicking, armbars, etc. it isn’t real athletics) A “sport” yes.
Ladies and gentlemen, we have among us a real he-man!
